MINUTES CITY COUNCIL June 11, 1980 Old Little Mayor Hanson asked Council if they wished to ask for an extension from Canada the School District on their option on the purchase of the Old Little School Canada School Building. The City Clerk reported that he has not contacted the Historical Society regarding if they still had an interest in the City's purchasing the building. Councilman Fahey stated that he was not interested in purchasing the building for $250,000. $100,000 seemed more reasonable to Mr. Fahey as a purchase price. The Attorney informed the Council that by asking for an extension they would be precluding the School District from finding a buyer for the building. If the Council is fairly certain that they will not purchase the building, why ask for an extension. The Attorney suggested that 'the City inform the School District that it doesn't look goad, but in, the meantime they will still consider purchasing the building. In that way the School District could put the building on the market. Mayor Hanson suggested that the Attorney draft a letter to Mr. Paul Borg of the School District and express just what he stated. Parks should make no reference to price, but just state that the $250,000 is too high. Parks stated that he will draft a letter and let the Council review it before he sends it to Mr. Borg. Adjourning Mr. Fahey introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION N0. 80-6-233 - ADJOURNING The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Mrs. Scalze. ayes (4) Fahey, Scalze, Flanson, Nadeau.
